The Karrimor Mount Mid Mens Waterproof Walking Boots are built for general walking and hiking on established trails and moderately challenging paths. The Weathertite waterproof membrane ensures your feet stay dry when encountering puddles, light rain, or damp grass, making them suitable for unpredictable weather conditions.
The breathable mesh panels are particularly beneficial on longer walks, helping to prevent your feet from overheating and reducing the chance of discomfort. The Dynagrip rugged outsole shines on uneven surfaces, providing confidence on muddy tracks, loose gravel, and rocky sections. You can expect reliable grip for ascents and descents.
The padded ankle collar and lace-up design work together to provide a snug, supportive fit, which is crucial for preventing blisters and maintaining stability over varied terrain. These boots are ideal for day hikes, dog walking, or simply exploring the outdoors where comfort, waterproofing, and reliable grip are essential.
Lacing: Begin by loosening the laces completely.
Insert Foot: Slide your foot into the boot, ensuring your heel is comfortably seated at the back.
Tighten Laces: Starting from the toe, gradually pull the laces snug, but not overly tight. Ensure even tension across your foot.
Ankle Support: Make sure the ankle collar is firm but not restrictive. Double knot to prevent laces from coming undone.
These boots are designed for:
Light to moderate hiking: Ideal for trails, forest paths, and country walks.
All-weather use: Thanks to their waterproof and breathable design.
Varied terrains: The rugged outsole performs well on dirt, gravel, and some rocky surfaces.
They are not designed for:
Extreme mountaineering or technical climbing.
Heavy-duty industrial work.
Cleaning: After each use, brush off loose dirt with a soft brush. For stubborn mud, use a damp cloth and warm water. Avoid harsh detergents.
Drying: Allow boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Remove insoles to aid drying. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or open fires, as this can damage materials and adhesives.
Waterproofing Maintenance: Periodically reapply a suitable waterproofing treatment designed for leather and textile walking boots to maintain the Weathertite membrane's effectiveness.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight. Avoid storing in damp conditions.
